Satirical, incisive take on American democracy.
If biting wit and political satire pique your interest, "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart Presents America (The Book)" is a must-read. Stewart and his team deliver a pseudo-textbook packed with humor and skewed facts, cleverly critiquing the American political system. The teacher's edition spin means you'll get a chuckle out of the mock-serious "corrections" and annotations. It's a fun, smart way to understand—and laugh at—the complexities and absurdities of American politics.
